    Afternoon,

    I just Picked up a 67 Plate cooper. I traded my M235 in for it to have something more efficient for the work commute.

    The car Is BRG.. its the first time in a long time ive owned something with less than 300 horses and to me honest I am loving it.

    Not much planned for it really but I do have some KW coilovers on order hopefully get them next week

    I met Mikeswagon last night and picked up a De-Chroming Kit (Top lad)

    Apart from that I am not planning on doing much. Toying with the Idea of a centre Pipe and Map but I may leave it a few months for when I get bored with it.

    The car is really my commuter as I have a "project toy" to blow the cobwebs off.

    SO if you see a wee BRG cooper in Aberdeenshire gimme a flash.

    cheers RB

    Sorry I had to rush off last night.... I should have got Kirsty to toddle over the road to training on her own.

    I forgot you'd have a black grill anyway.... you can always put that S one on ebay .

    Thanks for the welcome.

    Yep it’s just a wee 3 pot :-D I’ve actually got a JB4 on my golf R. It’s been on for 30k without problems.

    I’ll see what happens not trying to have a project car but I am a modding addict haha.

    @Mikeswagon, no problems I am sure we’ll get a night with better weather. As for the S grill I’ll try it on for sure as the slats are different. It’s nice to have options. Cheers again for the parts and transport. Maybe get a chance this weekend to paint them up.

    Cheers again for the welcome folks.
